After Wu Laoliu arrived in Zhujiafang City, he collected his belongings smoothly and then returned to Yanjiafang City.
As expected, no one in the entire city cared about where he had been during this time.
Logically speaking, this reaction is not right. It is not important that Jin Dan has been missing for a few days. What is important is that he was captured from the Yan family.
The capture of Jin Dan is definitely not a small matter, and it should be mentioned in a few words.
Therefore, Wu Laoliu was basically certain that he was being used as a weapon by a certain force and became a pawn to test Hongye Ridge.
Obviously, this force has realized that Hongye Ridge is difficult to offend and will naturally not show up again.
He was really sorry about this and wished he could stay a few more days to find out who was plotting against him.
However, as a Jindan who has been around the market for many years, he restrained his impulse.
Just as Hongye Ling was not interested in his past, he also knew that pursuing this matter would be a very unwise act.
There is a high probability that he cannot afford to offend the forces that dare to test Hongye Ridge and use Jin Dan as a pawn.
The key is that he is now a member of Hongye Ridge, and he can provoke enemies for the team without authorization, which is not a wise man's business.
Even if he is angry, he must go back and ask for instructions before making a decision.
Back at Hongye Ridge, Wu Laoliu took the initiative to find the big snake.
Taoist Jiao put a restriction on him. Many things did not need to be said explicitly, just a thought was enough.
"Let's put this matter aside for now." As expected, Taoist Jiao had no intention of making enemies for the time being.
Mainly because in the coming time, the team may face more severe storms.
Half a year passed in a blink of an eye, and Wu Laoliu had become Hongye Ridge's internal manager and external host.
Internally, they are mainly responsible for keeping an eye on the villagers and warning them not to cross the line. Externally, they are mainly responsible for running errands and receiving reception.
Some people respectfully call him the steward, while others call him the deacon. Wu Laoliu said that he would never take the title.
Fortunately, the people in Hongyeling stay at home and rarely go out, and have very little contact with the outside world.
Occasionally, neighbors would come to pay homage to the mountain, and it was indeed Wu Laoliu who received them, but he abided by his duties and never made decisions without authorization.
In the past six months, four or five groups of neighbors came, but they never saw the real owner and could only communicate with him.
Although he is also Jin Dan Zhenren and has enough weight, as everyone knows, he is just a defeated enemy of Hongye Ridge.
Such a person is responsible for reception, but he can't do anything. The nearby forces are too lazy to come again.
On this day, the three foundation-building robbers decided to go down the mountain. After half a year of rest, their broken legs were almost healed.
But it's just for ease of movement. If you really want to take action, you still won't be able to use your full strength.
But Wu Laoliu won't let them continue to recuperate - it's time for you to go back to get supplies and compensate Hongye Ridge.
He initiated the robbery and organized the robbery, so he shouldn't have such harsh requirements.
But Wu Laoliu said that I took a huge risk and saved three of your lives, which is enough.
The people who robbed him at that time also wanted to gain wealth, and no one intended to waste their efforts.
If anyone feels that he shouldn't rush, then just risk his life.
Especially for the guy named Shi Yongsheng, Wu Laoliu said, you must come back with the treasure hunter!
If there was even the slightest mistake, he would not wait for the other party to be poisoned and die, he would definitely search Dongsheng and catch him!
When that time comes, you will have a taste of what life is worse than death.
However, Shi Yongsheng also figured out that his treasure-hunting rat - "- must have the support of Hongye Ridge to bring greater harvest."
In the past, he didn't dare to let others know that he had a treasure-hunting rat, because he couldn't keep such a treasure at all.
So what he claims to the outside world is that he has the secret of perception and can detect treasures.
However, this secret technique will encounter backlash and cannot be used at will. Every time it is used, it must be rested for three to six months.
He has always worked very hard to hide it, and this time he really needs to rely on Hongye Ridge so that the Treasure Hunter can play a greater role.
So he is actually quite looking forward to the future, saying that he will never run away.
But at the same time, he also had concerns about going to get the treasure hunting rat alone - what if he ran into trouble?
When Wu Laoliu heard what he said, his mind moved slightly: Do you want to go and accompany him?
At this moment, a spiritual consciousness came from him, it was the leader of the Hongye Ridge team, "Let's arrange for the people from Yinjiabao to go there."
Yinjiabao——-Wu Laoliu nodded, "Okay, I'll make arrangements right away."
In the past six months, Yin Jiabao came to Hongye Ridge three times, almost once every two months.
Although they have not seen anyone else on the mountain, the Yin family has a very upright attitude, reporting on time and bringing some gifts.
The Yin family was completely frightened. They never thought that the new owner of Hongye Ridge would be so powerful.
They had collected taxes from two villages before, so that was fine. After all, the other party said that the matter had been revealed.
But when it comes to the Feng family, what Yin Jiabao did too - there was a problem!
At that time, they spared the lives of Feng's family and declared him missing half a year later. Their original intention was to wait for Hongye Ridge to take action.
As for how much malice they have, it's hard to explain, but there is no doubt that no matter how you look at it, there is absolutely no good intention.
When the Yin family realized that the other party actually had the strength to capture the golden elixir, he could also place a restraint in order to frighten him into peeing.
What's even more regrettable is that they wanted to explain their motives, but they could no longer contact the real owner.
The few foundations built by the Yin family were basically not enough for Wu Laoliu, so he could only come to the house to apologize.
Wu Laoliu could not understand their little thoughts, and he was very sure that the original temptation was not purely motivated.
He doesn't get angry either, but his attitude is definitely not very kind.
After asking for instructions from the big snake, Wu Laoliu didn't even accept the other party's gift. He just said that the past was over.
And the dignified Hongye Ridge is not inferior to you, a benevolent melon and a jujube.
That's what he said, but how dare Yin Jiabao just listen to it?
So every two months or so, the Yin family would send someone over. If they couldn't see the real master, they could just see Wu Laoliu.
The gifts they brought had also been changed. They were nothing expensive, just some local specialties produced in Yinjiabao.
Wu Laoliu was somewhat annoyed by this family, but he could also understand why the Yin family was so afraid of Hongye Ridge.
This time, the leader actually decided to let Yinjiabao help escort. It seems that this matter is basically over.
Yinjiabao has a total of four foundations. If two can be sent to protect Shi Yongsheng, it is basically impossible to have any accidents.
So that night, Wu Laoliu went to the Yin Family Fort but he didn't show up. He just directly contacted a foundation builder of the Yin Family with his spiritual consciousness.
Zhuji was overjoyed after receiving the news and said that he was going to Zhujiafang City and everyone would go along with him.
As for the cost of protection, there’s no need to mention it. It’s just a matter of convenience. Why are the neighbors talking about this?
After Wu Laoliu returned to Hongye Ridge, he was still a little confused: Just let the Yin family go?
He didn't think there was much hatred between Hongye Ridge and Yinjiabao, and he also knew that his team was not a murderous people.
But if you just let it go, wouldn't it be a bit advantageous to the other party?
Who would have thought that as soon as the three foundation builders left the next day, the consciousness of the big snake arrived and said, "Come here."
When Wu Laoliu arrived, everyone was a little confused, "Is this - the third-level spiritual pulse aura?"
In the past six months, he has also been resting and recuperating slowly from the various hidden injuries his body suffered in the last battle.
But his cultivation level did not rise but fell, because here——·after all, he only had second-order spiritual veins.
No matter how good the spirit gathering array is, it can only maintain the cultivation level of one golden elixir without falling.
If the force is too great, the spiritual veins will be damaged and the level will drop over time.
And Wu Laoliu also knew that his family had many Nascent Souls, and the golden elixirs were at least... - double digits.
In front of such a group of big guys, even if he was not banned, he would not have the guts to compete with them for training resources.
Now he unexpectedly discovered that the spiritual veins here had been upgraded to the third level, and he was really overjoyed.
Maybe, this is why this team bought this place?
At this moment, Wu Laoliu highly suspected that the spiritual veins here were probably not only the third level, but at least - it had to be the fourth level, right?
Otherwise, we really cannot afford to support so many Nascent Souls.
"Don't think so much," Taoist Jiao sensed his thoughts and said simply, "You can practice here in the future."
"We have all seen your performance in the past six months. Since you are working for us, we won't let your work be in vain."
"Thank you, Master Xiu," Wu Laoliu almost knelt down, "My cultivation level is too low, so I am very frightened to receive such courtesy."
This is really not an act, and his true feelings cannot be hidden from the other party.
Thinking that he has been living in Zhujiafang City for seventy or eighty years, his biggest wish is to have a third-level spiritual vein that he can cultivate by himself.
And most of his income was spent on renting a cave for cultivation.
This third-level spiritual vein does not belong to him, but it is enough to be able to practice here without paying spiritual stones!
The compensation he paid to Hongyeling was also quite large, but compared with the current courtesy, it was really far from enough.
If he had known earlier that the people who robbed him would get such treatment, he would have lost everything to find them a hundred years ago!
"I won't let you go to Zhujiafang City, but I also want to give you this answer," the big snake's meaning was very clear, "do you know what to do?"
"Understood," Wu Laoliu said very clearly, "Don't let the three of them know that there are more than two levels of spiritual veins!"
"As long as you understand," Daoist Jiao didn't want to say more, "By the way, the things in your stomach should also be sorted, right?"
"I understand," Wu Laoliu nodded simply. He was able to get this kind of reward because of his hard work over the past six months.
And Orochi can basically conclude that when he robbed someone, he really didn't want to kill anyone.
Of course, if you encounter fierce resistance, it will be difficult to maintain the scale.
Fortunately, that scene did not happen after all.
